ahh, that's how i feel today. and it is a 4 day week, which is amazing. and then i have 10 glorious days off for spring break. yay for that. i must say having a week off this time of year makes me love being a teacher sometimes. actually i love being a teacher most days. i love what i am doing, and that i get to love history and hopefully i'm helping my students understand and have an appreciation for and maybe a love history too.
anyway, it was a raaaainy day here in jersey. like super rainy. i'm hoping april won't be as rainy as march. and wtf, already the end of march. like where does time go? and the end of 3rd quarter is almost upon is? i have 52 more days of school this year. craazy!
i'm exited for the virginia adventure for spring break. i'm not sure what we're doing. going down to richmond to see my sister and doing monticello (tj's home) on easter and i'm also getting to see my pen-pal holly and her adorable daughter mia for the first time! and then some civil war virginia history which i am SOOOOO excited for! especially since i am teaching the civil war right now. is it sad i get excited to travel and take pictures to show my students when we talk about something in class. yes, i will admit i am a dork. and i kinda love history. a lot.
and omg grading. i had projects due in all my classes last week. so today i've graded about 85/100 photography projects on the civil war and civil rights movements. also graded 40 1960s politics quizes and 60 civil war quizes. plus some homework. can you say last week of the quarter grading frenzy. and then i'll have 60 tests after thursday too.
and saturday i was sorority girltastic. it was the nj zeta day. so all the zeta's in nj, both college and alum met. and it was a blast. it was awesome to meet our national president and we had the sweetest girl from louisiana who is up in long island for a few months at our table and an adorable women was recognized for 50 years of zeta. and i ran into a few girls from my chapter who were seniors when i was a new member. so it was a great day and reminded me why i love zeta and that it is great to be involved as an alum!
and now i'm sick... boooo. i have a cold, which isn't too bad, but uugh!
